The Modified $0.39 Swap

I will post a sent/recieved thread later. Names will go out this afternoon

Sign Up close: Morning 1/10
Names sent out: Evening 1/10
Mail by date: 1/19

It was anything and everything you can stuff in an envelope for a $.39 stamp. Now last time some people used the padded envelope and then the postage was 2 stamps. So I will be offering both.

You can pick themes you like, ie Disney, Holiday, Pet, Garden themed or specifics like-stickers, fiber/ribbon, eyelets/brads. You would end up with less of the brads/eyelets as they weigh more and lots more of the lighter weight items. I believe there was one in July/August if you do a search you can see what people asked/requested.

You also give me a list of items you have to offer. But here is the deal, it is supposed to be items you already have. You're not supposed to go out and buy new items. (Unless for some reason you use every single thing you've ever purchased)

Than I give you a name of someone who wants the kind of things you are offering and give your name to someone who has what you want, in the same stamp group. And you aren't allowed to complain if you don't like what you rec'd. Copy and paste the following into a PM and send it to me.

DISname:
Name:
Address:
Email address (for my use only):
One Stamp or Two Stamps:
Ship Internationally: Yes or No
Items you would like:
Items you have to give:

I will keep a list here of who signed up. There is NO limit to who can sign up. The more, the merrier!!

After names have been sent out, I will start a send/rec’d thread. Please post on that thread when you mail you envelope out. Please also post when you receive your envelope and list all the great things you got.

Ok, never did one of these before - so we are just mailing an envelope to ONE person right? And should we tell you in the pm if we will be using a reg. envie or a padded envie??

Yes. You tell me if you want to send/receive items in a regular envelope or a padded envelope. You will send to ONE person and another person will send to you.

Well, I guess it is possible that there is ONE person out there who only buys what they need to finish a particular page. I AM NOT THAT PERSON. Ha, ha, I have so much stuff I know I won't use, but it was either a really good deal or just soo cute. I have lots of embellishments, too much for the just two pizza box swaps. This way I can give some of the right things to the person who would really use them. A Win-Win. :woohoo:

I had my two plus my DS's three. She has a set of twin girls (7) that have ADD. And on top of that, they are really LOUD! Love them dearly, but sometimes I wish they had a volume knob that I could turn waaaay down.:rotfl: Of course it didn't help that mine were sick most of this break and this was their first time and only time to spend together.

Ya know, the town is kinda like the sign- you really have to look for it and if you blink, you will miss it! But hey, it was featured on Late Night With David Letterman once!

I am starting to match up names now. So if you haven't PM'd me yet, I would really appreciate it if you could soon. This should be a great exchange of scrapping items.

Remember, I am keeping this open until the 10th, so more can sign up if they wish. It won't be that hard to switch around a few names to the best matches of wishes and haves.

JOIN US!! :woohoo:

Do we send an SAE with our swap or does the swappee sort out return postage?

AlexWyattMommy
01-07-2007, 02:59 PM
The person sending is responsable for the sending postage.

We have quite a few willing to go international, so postage to you is not a problem.

AlexWyattMommy
01-07-2007, 03:19 PM
I've update the first page. If your name is in purple that means I do have your address & WISH list.

This is going to be fun.
